The Pacific Northwet

What I Wore: [Shirt: Urban Outfitters (similar), Jeans: Madewell, Jacket: Gap, Shoes: Lucky (similar), Hat: Target (similar), Bag: Longchamp]

I seems as though our bought of sunny days in Portland has come to somewhat of a halt as it's been rainy and miserable all weekend long. When the weather goes from beautiful and sunny to wet and dreary I'm very prone to feeling lethargic and not wanting to do anything other than lay in my bed and read all day, so when I woke up on Saturday and the sun was no where to be seen I made it point to force myself out of bed and into the world. The day included brunch at Tasty & Sons with some friends and then heading to the Living Room Theaters to see Ballet 422 (hence why my bag looks so lumpy, it was full of snacks), which are my perfect alternatives to spending a rainy day curled up in bed.

Cambridge and a Cardigan

What I Wore: [Dress: Topshop, Sweater: Urban Outfitters (super old), Belt: Forever 21, Shoes: Born, Earrings: Kate Spade]

On Sunday myself and 9 others on my study abroad program woke up early and hopped on the train to spend the day in Cambridge. It was a simply lovely day full of punting on the Cam, pub food, gawking at all the amazing architecture/wondering what it would be like to go to school in such a beautiful place, and lots and lots of wandering around the cobble stone streets. I’m hoping to make more of these type of day trips around England while I am here in London, my list of places I want to see and explore is never ending!

I picked up this beautiful emerald dress in during the Topshop sale within my first two weeks here and I am so glad I did! I’m really loving the higher neckline trend right now, hence why the combination of the mock turtle neck, ultra flattering cut, and beautiful color/texture made it impossible for me to pass up. Paired with it I’m wearing two of my most beloved pieces, my quilted Born flats and this mauve cardigan, to help tie the whole look together.

Thanks for stopping by!

Gingham Girl

What I Wore: [Top: Target, Cardigan: H&M, Necklace: Target, Skirt: Urban Outfitters, Shoes: White Mountain, Lipstick: MAC “Brick-O-La”]

The summer weather in Minnesota isn’t quite warm enough to break out my sundresses and shorts yet but I’ve been loving that I am able to wear open toed shoes and skirts, (even if I have to pair them with a sweater and long sleeved shirt)! These wedges are my warm weather staple shoe and I was happy to rediscover this yellow skirt when I came home from school a few weeks ago, together they make a fantastically comfortable pair that I can see myself wearing all summer.

Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!
